A year older, and a year better!

Hi, everyone! It's Kelli here today with a gift card holder to share with you! I used the new Swirly Doos stamp set for everything on the belly band and for the sentiment on the inside of the card. I made the little flower embellishment out of some stickers from the So Happy Together Element Sticker Sheet. I layered it on dimensional adhesive so it also serves as a stopper for the belly band. The patterned paper is from the My Mind's Eye - Love Me 6x6 paper pad. I love how you can take a lot of patterned papers from pads that are meant for certain holidays and use them on your everyday projects!

Here's a closeup of the band. I masked off the swirly on the top of the main image from the Swirly Doos set and just stamped the lines in green so it would help give it a nice border.

Here's the inside of the card and the belly band. The green piece that holds the gift card is just a piece of card stock that was scored and folded at 1/4" around 3 sides and then glued onto the inside of the card to serve as a little pocket.
